Trichomes Glandular Stalked
Glandular stalked trichomes are hair-like structures on cannabis flower and leaf surfaces that sit atop a thin, visible stem or stalk. The glandular head—containing cannabinoids, terpenes, and other secondary metabolites—is elevated above the plant tissue, making these trichomes structurally distinct from sessile (stalkless) variants. Breeders and researchers observe glandular stalked trichomes across many cultivar backgrounds, though prevalence and density vary significantly by lineage. This classification is primarily used in botanical description and breeding documentation rather than as a predictor of chemical composition or plant performance.

Trichome morphology, including stalk presence and height, is a heritable trait that breeders monitor during selection. Glandular stalked populations may show different resin presentation or extraction characteristics compared to sessile-dominant lines, making this trait relevant for programs targeting specific processing methods or phenotypic consistency.
